This Day in History: DECEMBER 5th
December 5th in True Christian History:
TEACH THE CONTROVERSY!
It was used as fertilizer, back when organic farming was the norm. So next time a self-proclaimed-pacifist yuppie tries to make you eat their favorite overpriced tumbleweed salad, blame them for triggering the PTSD you got from the Chincha Islands Bird-Poop War.
Except for the one who becomes Pope. "Dissolute" is a good word to describe him, alright.
1484 – Pope Innocent VIII issues the Summis desiderantes affectibus, a papal bull that deputizes Heinrich Kramer and Jacob Sprenger as inquisitors to root out alleged witchcraft in Germany.
Jerry Springer Sr. clearly didn't root hard enough, if techno music teaches us anything:1492 – Christopher Columbus becomes the first European to set foot on the island of Hispaniola (now Haiti and the Dominican Republic).
First? Not if you ask Mormons:TEACH THE CONTROVERSY!
1496 – King Manuel I of Portugal issues a decree ordering the expulsion of Jewish "heretics" from the country.
They wander the Earth until 1848 (see below).1776 – Phi Beta Kappa, the oldest academic honor society in the U.S., holds its first meeting at the College of William & Mary.
First on the order of business is a gangrape, if you believe Rolling Stone Magazine.1847 – Jefferson Davis is elected to the U.S. Senate.
Thanks be to the LORD for the Senate, over-representing rural/slaveowning states like any proper electoral system should.1848 – California Gold Rush: In a message to the United States Congress, U.S. President James K. Polk confirms that large amounts of gold had been discovered in California.
In case you ever wonder why so many Jews are there....1865 – Chincha Islands War: Peru allies with Chile against Spain.
Mexicans don't just kill each other over drugs, they'll even kill each other over bird poop. Yes: bird poop.It was used as fertilizer, back when organic farming was the norm. So next time a self-proclaimed-pacifist yuppie tries to make you eat their favorite overpriced tumbleweed salad, blame them for triggering the PTSD you got from the Chincha Islands Bird-Poop War.
1901 – [birth of] Walt Disney
Psychedelic mushroom consumption will never be the same:1931 – Cathedral of Christ the Saviour in Moscow is destroyed on orders from Joseph Stalin.
Orthodox "Christians" pray for it's salvation, but Christ The Savior does not save dens of Orthodox heresy.1934 – Abyssinia Crisis: Italian troops attack Wal Wal in Abyssinia, taking four days to capture the city.
4 days to capture a Wal Mart, and it wasn't even Black Thursday! Wimpiest nation in the world.1935 – Mary McLeod Bethune founds the National Council of Negro Women in New York City.
Is immediately pimp-slapped and told to make a sandwich by the National Council of Negro Men.1943 – World War II: Allied air forces begin attacking Germany's secret weapons bases in Operation Crossbow.
Crossbows are not a secret weapon. They're not even much of a weapon. Really only useful for when you want to break up a midnight cat-fight without making even more noise.1945 – Flight 19, a group of TBF Avengers, disappears in the Bermuda Triangle.
If they had been called TBF Forgivers, Christ would have saved them.1952 – Beginning of the Great Smog in London. A cold fog combines with air pollution and brings the city to a standstill for four days. Later, a Ministry of Health report estimates 4,000 fatalities as a result of it.
Boo hoo. Trump digs coal, so Jesus does too. Those hyperventilating Londoners should have just breathed less.1955 – E. D. Nixon and Rosa Parks lead the Montgomery bus boycott.
See thread about this.1983 – Dissolution of the Military Junta in Argentina.
2017 – The International Olympic Committee bans Russia from competing at the 2018 Winter Olympics for doping at the 2014 Winter Olympics.
I don't get why, Vodka is not performance-enhancing.
